From Grand Coulee take Hwy 174 east towards Spokane for 2.8 miles.
Make a left turn at the Spring Canyon Campground exit. The cemetery
is in less than a mile on the left side of the road at 45387 Camp
Ground Drive. A bit hard to spot.
Spring Canyon Cemetery was conceived by the Grand Coulee Lions
Club. They purchased about 7 acres of land then had the cemetery
built, with the first burial taking place in the fall of 1957.
It continues to be owned and maintained by the Grand Coulee Lions
Club, operating by a cemetery board. It has been self-supporting
for more than 20 years with a perpetual-care endowment fund. After
40 years, about half of the grave sites have been used.
This much needed cemetery services many towns in the surrounding
area, such as Grand Coulee, Coulee City, Electric City, Elmer
City and others.
I visited and walked this cemetery on Jun 22, 2003. I used a
digital camera and have photos of all existing and legible stones
at that time. An asterisk following an entry was usually from
records which have no photo and came from obits or some other
source. Birdie Hensley provided additional names and locations
to me twice after Jun 22, 2003.
